The Depth of Me

The depth of me Glistens in my tears of joy and traverses my tears of sorrow. How I can embrace the one today and face the other come the morrow. The depth of me surpasses the strength I find, when I have reached the end of my rope. When I believe I am forsaken, yet I reach for that ray of hope. The depth of me awakens in my slumber as dreams coalesce from needs. I become more than I am today, yet so much less than I can be The depth of me speaks softly for others ears, whispering just what I want to show. Staying within to heed the call. I am so much more than you know.

Interesting structure, flow and rhythm, Paula. Unique, but it works so well. Pair the unique style with the profound and intelligent message and it makes for one terrific poem - just what I would expect from ... the depths of you. Joe
